A Narrow Excape.

Monday morning, about 9 O'Clock, Miss
Emma Houstain, living few miles from
Winchester. started to go from her house
to her fathers residence, about half
mile distant. A little girl Cher cousin, We
are informed) accompanied her. The
blizzard was blowing at the time. Hours
passed and Miss Houstain and her little
companion did not reach their destna-
tion. An alarm was given, and in short
order everybody in Winchester was out
on the search. The wanderers were at
length found, about s p. M, by Mr.. James
Parker, on a knoll several miles from
their home. Miss H. was sitting on the
ground. unconscious, thoroughly chilled
and drenched with the melting snow
She was tenderly carried to the residence
of friends at Winchester where she finally
revived. The young lady suffered no
permanent injury. our informant states.
The hardships Of the day had not greatly
affected the little eight-year-nld mss.
When found she was standing by Miss
Houstain, and her first demand on reach
ing Winchester was for Something to
eat" 1t was extremely fortunate that the
point where Miss Houstain became insen-
sible was on high ground had it been in
coolie the snow might have drifted over
her. 1t may be said that one very thank.
full family live on South Prairie to-day,
and their name is Houstain.

The Weather.

ln0 N6aC0efs
Will the wonders never cease? After a
year of drought came a remarkably bliz-
zardy winter and heavy snowfall. Then
came pleasant spring, the snow soaking
into the ground and leaving it in fine
condition for seeding. Last week win
dows were open and everYbody--of the
male 'spersuasion'-in their shirt-sleeves.
Friday and Saturday, particularly, were
more like June than April days. Satur-
day night 1t grew cooler. and Sunday was
windy and showery, with a heavy rain
and some sleet in the evening. Monday
morning about o'clock the writer was
awakened from dream of that happy
realm beyond the ske-i. where every pat
ron of the Summer Land Gazette pays
his subscription in advance, by something
nightly like snow sitting through the
mansard roof of his mansion and striking
him on his face. Going to the door he
found a regular forty horse power, double.
back-action blizzard in full blast. Now,
like the past winter, this was an aston
Usher; but the astonishing of people was
its only harmful quality. With all the
rain. and sleet, and snow, and frost, there
was no damage done, as the snow pro
tected vegetation in gardens and fields
The snow rapidly melted, and radishes
onions, lettuce, bects and other garder
truck near the. RECORD residence reap
peared from under three-foot snow bank
in as good condition as ever. When We
have blizzard In May, nothing need as
tonlsh us !; and this constrains us to re
mark that il we can only get plenty o1
snow in June, .sthis will be good yea
